Description

Cycloastragenol CAS NO 78574-94-4 is a highly purified, bioactive triterpenoid saponin aglycone primarily derived from *Astragalus membranaceus*. This compound is of significant commercial and research interest due to its recognized role as a potent telomerase activator. It is essential for manufacturers and R&D teams in the nutraceutical, cosmeceutical, and pharmaceutical industries seeking to develop products focused on cellular health and longevity.

Application

• Nutraceutical Formulations: A key active ingredient in dietary supplements targeting cellular aging, immune support, and metabolic health.
• Cosmeceutical & Skincare Products: Incorporated into anti-aging creams, serums, and lotions for its potential to promote skin cell vitality and reduce visible signs of aging.
• Pharmaceutical Research & Development: Serves as a critical reference standard and active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in preclinical studies for age-related diseases and telomere biology.
• Functional Food & Beverages: Used in the fortification of health-focused food and drink products.
• Biochemical Research: Employed as a high-purity reagent in molecular biology and gerontology research to study telomerase activity and cellular senescence pathways.
